Hello, Friends! Thank you for stopping by my little corner of the Internet. My name is Dan Mazer, aka “BanjerDan.” I’m an acoustic musician raised in Washington, DC now living near Santa Cruz, CA. I’m mostly a banjo player, along with a couple of other stringed instruments, and I like to sing songs and tell stories. My deepest musical love is Bluegrass, of course, but I also love other styles ranging from country and folk to jazz and classical music. I have a wide range of extra-musical interests as well, including science, especially evolution and paleontology; as well as art, film, environmentalism, and history.
Get ready for a vibey afternoon filled with acoustic rock, pop and reggae. See you there ~ cheers!

The Country Squires, classic honky tonk sounds from the hills of the Santa Cruz Mountains. Good for drinking, dancing, or just sitting there having a good old time!
The Country Squires are, Jerry B Logan on guitar lead vocals and songwriting, "King" Freddy Deubert on drums, Noah Hall on stand-up bass and Bob Kolb on lap steel. The band's very beginnings go back to 2017 when Jerry, Freddy and Noah started up Three on the Tree. Classic country, rockabilly western swing and Jerry's originals were the staples. Then Noah moved back to Florida. Fast forward to 2023. Three on the Tree is a 7 piece "big band", Noah moved back to town and the "O. G. 3" got back together with the added attraction of Bob "the Hitman" Kolb on lap steel, and, The Country Squires were born! Once again the classic, raw sound of 50's country music is alive and well in the hills of the northern California coast!
